在MS SQL Server数据库中，使用此查询获取包含输入文本的表和相应的列名：

SELECT t.name AS tableName, c.name AS columnName 
FROM sys.tables as t 
INNER JOIN sys.columns AS c ON t.object_id=c.object_id 
WHERE c.name LIKE '%<your_search_string>%'

我出于同样的目的使用了这个，它起到了作用：

  select * from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
  where TABLE_CATALOG= 'theDatabase'
  and COLUMN_NAME like 'theCol%'

SELECT table_schema + '.' + table_name,
       column_name
FROM   [yourdatabase].information_schema.columns
WHERE  column_name LIKE '%myName%' 

这将为您提供需要查找的列的表名。

像oracle一样，您可以通过以下方式查找表和列：

select table_name, column_name
from user_tab_columns 
where column_name 
like '%myname%';

为此，我们可以使用sp_columns。

sp_columns 'table name', null, null, '%column name%'

USE AdventureWorks

GO

SELECT t.name AS table_name, SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name,
 c.name AS column_name
FROM sys.tables AS t
INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID
WHERE c.name LIKE '%EmployeeID%'
ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;
